Seeing Red: Redshifts, Cosmology and Academic Science by Halton Arp

Apeiron, Montreal, 1999

In these two books, Halton Arp elaborates his contention that since 1966, observations have been accumulating which contradict the generally accepted big bang cosmology. The key issue is the interpretation of redshift, the fractional increase in the wavelengths of lines in an astronomical spectrum when compared with laboratory wavelengths. Arp puts together a substantial body of observations to produce a very different picture of the universe from that envisaged in big bang cosmology. Since the big bang is the current astronomical orthodoxy, it is no surprise that Arp and others with similar views have encountered unrelenting, often unreasonable, opposition in publishing their findings. Arp graduated from Harvard in 1949 and obtained his Ph.D. from Caltech in 1953. His thesis work on colour-magnitude diagrams for stars in globular clusters boosted the development of stellar evolution theory and helped establish the currently-accepted age for the Milky Way galaxy of around 15 billion years.1 In the mid-1960s, he produced the Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies, which involved photographing (often using the largest instruments available) and carefully scrutinising hundreds of galaxies. He is evidently well acquainted with the detailed structure and relationships of numerous galaxies. Arp is certainly no creationist (Seeing Red, p. 270).
